Surgery for OCD

Is there surgery for OCD?

Yes, there is surgery for everything in medicine. When there is money to be made, doctors will always invent a surgical procedure-rest assured. The surgery for OCD in simple terms is Bullshit. It is a crap. 
Deep brain stimulation is done by inserting electrodes into your brain and uses a pacemaker to stimulate the nerves. The treatment is not only expensive ($20,000-$40,000) but there is no guarantee it works. In addition, some of the complications after surgery are serious. You may not have OCD anymore, but afterwards you may not be able to speak, walk, eat or poop. 

Leave surgery alone- it is still experimental and the results are abysmal. If you have money to spare, give it to the local SPCA or take a long vacation. Leave the surgery for gullible fools who have money to throw away.
